5(a) Disputed Calculations or Valuations. If a party (a “Disputing Party”) disputes (I) the Calculation Agent (IM)’s calculation of a Delivery Amount (IM) or a Return Amount (IM) or (II) the Value of any transfer of Eligible Credit Support (IM) or Posted Credit Support (IM), then:
- (i) the Disputing Party will notify the other party and the Calculation Agent (IM) (if the Calculation Agent (IM) is not the other party) not later than the close of business on (x) the date that the transfer is due in respect of such Delivery Amount (IM) or Return Amount (IM) in the case of (I) above, or (y) the Local Business Day following the date of transfer in the case of (II) above;
- (ii) subject to Paragraph 4(a) (if applicable), in the case of (I) above, the appropriate party will transfer the undisputed amount to the other party not later than the close of business on the date that the transfer is due in respect of such Delivery Amount (IM) or Return Amount (IM);
- (iii) the parties will consult with each other in an attempt to resolve the dispute; and
- (iv) if they fail to resolve the dispute by the Resolution Time, then:
- (A) in the case of a dispute involving a Delivery Amount (IM) or Return Amount (IM), the Calculation Agent (IM) will recalculate the Credit Support Amount (IM) and Value as of the Recalculation Date by using the procedures specified in Paragraph 13 for calculating the Credit Support Amount (IM), and for calculating the Value, if disputed, of Posted Credit Support (IM); and
- (B) in the case of a dispute involving the Value of any transfer of Eligible Credit Support (IM) or Posted Credit Support (IM), the Calculation Agent (IM) will recalculate the Value as of the date of transfer pursuant to Paragraph 13.
- (A) in the case of a dispute involving a Delivery Amount (IM) or Return Amount (IM), the Calculation Agent (IM) will recalculate the Credit Support Amount (IM) and Value as of the Recalculation Date by using the procedures specified in Paragraph 13 for calculating the Credit Support Amount (IM), and for calculating the Value, if disputed, of Posted Credit Support (IM); and
Following a recalculation pursuant to this Paragraph 5, the Calculation Agent (IM) will notify each party (or the other party, if the Calculation Agent (IM) is a party) not later than the Notification Time on the Local Business Day following the Resolution Time. The appropriate party will, upon demand following that notice by the Calculation Agent (IM) or a resolution pursuant to Paragraph 5(a)(iii) above and subject to Paragraphs 4(a) (if applicable) and 4(c), make the appropriate transfer.
5(b) No Event of Default. The failure by a party to make a transfer of any amount which is the subject of a dispute to which Paragraph 5(a) above applies will not constitute an Event of Default for as long as the procedures set out in this Paragraph 5 (as supplemented by the provisions of Paragraph 13) are being carried out (but without prejudice to a party’s obligation to transfer the undisputed amount under Paragraph 5(a)(ii) above). For the avoidance of doubt, upon completion of those procedures, Section 5(a)(iii)(1) of the Agreement will apply to any failure by a party to make a transfer required under the final sentence of Paragraph 5(a) on the relevant due date (subject to Paragraph 7).
